All these models need to go on detox diet. Look at those constipated looks n lusterless skin. They all look so unwell.

However, some even appreciated the simplicity of the models’ expression:
I think this #jewelery ad is very nice which reflects the simplicity and natural beauty, but if these models had a bindi on their forehead and a little smile on their lips then it would definitely enriched the beauty of jewelleries….. #Sabyasachi pic.twitter.com/fpjOVftq2f

This is not the first time Sabyasachi Mukherjee has been on the receiving end of criticisms. In October, the fashion designer was criticised on the ad campaign featuring mangalsutras which was termed as “obscene” by the netizens.
The promotional advertisement featured both heterosexual and homosexual couples wearing The Royal Bengal Mangalsutra, which is a part of Sabyasachi’s intimate jewellery collection.
